Disappointing Elizabeth Warren

Not surprisingly, and proving that Democrats learned very
little from the 2016 election cycle, the list included several
well-known establishment names including Hillary Clinton, Michelle
Obama, Joe Biden and even Tim Kaine. But, right at the top of the list
at #1 was the ultra "progressive" Senator from Massachusetts, Elizabeth
Warren.

But while Warren might be the Dems' new hope for becoming the first female president in 2020 (something that Lena Dunham desperately needs in her life), a
new poll from her home state suggests that she may want to focus on
holding her Senate seat in Massachusetts before setting her sites on the
White House. According to a new poll from WBUR, 46%
of registered voters in Massachusetts would like to "give someone else a
chance" in the Senate while only 44% say Warren "deserves reelection."

Are you surprised?

I'm not.

I've told she was unpopular.

And she really is.

She's fake and insincere.

She may please some on the national stage but in our state she remains a huge disappointment.

Monday, January 23, 2017. Chaos and violence continue, eastern Mosul --
turns out -- not fully liberated as claimed last week, thug Nouri
al-Maliki continues to cast a shadow over Iraq, what were US State Dept
employees doing in the streets of Erbil on Saturday, and much more.

Why do they lie?

Maybe to excuse away their actions and ignore their guilt.

Yet again the corporate media is pimping the lie that Iraq came together to defeat the Islamic State.

Iraq's armed forces said Wednesday they are now in full control of
eastern Mosul, a key development in a bloody fight with the Islamic
State to win back the country's second-largest city.Iraqi Army Lt. Gen. Talib Shaghati, who commands the counterterrorism
forces, said the achievement was a “big victory,” describing the success
of the Iraqi forces as “unprecedented,” the Associated Press reported.

Iraq has maintained one of the highest execution rates each year since the US-led invasion kicked off the Iraq War in 2003.

But that's no concern to Kenny Roth.

He's alarmed by a throw away remark by Donald.

Are we still not smart enough to turn down the constant outrage over Donald's throw away lines or his Tweets?

Nope.

Waiting to object to something he actually proposes is just too much.

Got to feed that outrage machine.

And Tweeting about what Trump said is so much easier than dealing with the realities of Iraq.

Kenneth Roth has become a huge waste. And if the coven in upper New
York has their way, he will waste away this year. Judging by the photos
of him at Davos, those women may have done a successful cast.

I'm so proud of Kenny and the gang of whores who make up HRW these days.

I love the Tweet about who should and should not head the CIA based on whether or not they support mass surveillance.

You mean the mass surveillance that Barack carried out for two full terms without HRW ever condemning him for it?

#ThankYouObama for killing all those children in Libya, Syria, Somalia, Pakistan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Gaza, Yemen, and bailing out the banks

Where were you when it mattered?

That's right, no where to be found.

You acted as those the killing was normal, when you bothered to register it.

Just like you pretend nothing happened in Erbil this weekend.

For those who don't know, a number of US State Dept employees took to the streets of Erbil to protest US President Donald Trump.

People ought to be terminated for that.

There are rules when you work for the government.

They are paid by the US tax payer and they are limited in what they can and cannot do as government employees.

But they ignored that and they didn't care about the message they were
sending, US government employees protesting the US President on foreign
soil.

There's no excuse for their actions.

Nor is there any excuse for the US press not covering what took place or how offensive it was.

But if they'd told the truth during Nouri al-Maliki's second term (or
the truth about how he got that term), the Islamic State would never
have taken hold in Iraq.

Mohamed Mostafa (IRAQI NEWS) reports:Kurdistan Region’s President Masud Barzani threatened on Monday to
declare the independence of the autonomous region from Iraq if Iraqi
Vice President Nouri al-Maliki returns to the leadership of the
government.“The moment Maliki assumes cabinet chairmanship, I will declare the
independence of Kurdistan without consulting anybody. No matter what
happens. I am not staying in an Iraq ruled by al-Maliki,” he was quoted
as telling Asharq al-Awsat newspaper on the sidelines of the World
Economic Forum in Davos.

Barzani said the Iraqi parliament’s decision in September 2016 to
withdraw confidence from former finance minister Husihar Zebari, a Kurd,
was designed to return Maliki to cabinet leadership and to impede
incumbent premier Haider al-Abadi.
